by Colorado Buffaloes Football legend Shedeur Sanders does not go directly to the CFL if he does not end up in the Kleveland Browns schedule before the start of the regular season of 2025.
That is what Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk has passed on anyway.
Florio believes that Sanders would still have an NFL landing site before he is considering playing professionally in Canada.
He also does not take the CFL route seriously for the ‘adult QB’.
“Nothing matters, unless and until Sanders from the NFL washes and decides to roll the dice north of the border. Chad Kelly did it. Doug Flutie did it. Warren Moon and Joe Thesimann used CFL success as springboard to NFL,” Florio wrote.
“If Sanders ever plays for the Argonauts, this will mean that things will have gone very bad for him in Cleveland, and possibly elsewhere.
“Anyway, the news that currently makes the rounds is not new. The Argonauts still have the negotiating rights of Shedeur. And Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.”
CFL commissioner Stewart Johnson admitted that the release of the full negotiation list by the competition, which contains the Toronto Argonauts that owns Sanders’ negotiating rights, was a PR game.
“We are aimed at giving more opportunities to give fans and media more opportunities to make contact with our product on entertainment and meaningful ways,” said Johnston, who started in his role in the spring, in a statement, according to Sportnet Canada. “By making the full negotiating lists public, fans now have visibility in who could be the next star of their favorite team, to start discussion and debate and giving insight into how CFL gratings are built.”
It absolutely worked to get extra interest in the season of the CFL, which started in the dog days of the Summer Sports Calendar in the early June.
Call it the “prime time” effect.
